Ehem, excuse me...
Now, as one of your local SB representatives, I must take this time to remind you that you are still about 3,000 members short of SB's number. It also must be taken into account that they have more people active during the day.
That's just for now, but anyway.
Oh, and none can defeat the power of OBS

Having looked at this thread, I must admit to having groaned and rolled my eyes at several posts.
No wonder people here are thought of as people who masturbate to Wong and crap like that, and hell, shit like this certanly isn't helping, and I can't blame the people who thinks that now, it's not the first time I've seen stuff like this.
This is just fuel for the fire and I also think this "Wong worship" has gone way too far and to an outside observer it just looks sad, like some sci-fi geek cult.
I respect Wong and his obvious capabilties when it comes to logic but I don't go around saying he's a god or hail lord Wong or stuff like that.
I know it's mostly just joking but thats not how it looks and even I sometimes have a hard time telling myself it's only joking or serious hero worship and even so, "get a life" is the phrase which involuntary springs to mind.
I realize this isn't exactly gonna make me popular but I feel it has to be said.

This is what I feel, simply by reading the title. Look you guys, if all you are going to do is worship Wong, all it does is degrade yourself, and I am sure Wong feels just as degraded. I know I would. I think that if you are going to spend your time on this board worshipping the admin, you need to get out more, and have a life.
I know I am on this board quite a bit, and don't have much room to speak, but I am on this board because I enjoy it, not because I worship Wong. It sickens me to see anybody throwing themselves so low as to go about kissing the ground someone walks on.
Again, I am on this board at all hours of the day sometimes, but I know that I have friends that I can hang out with (provided I can get a hold of them) and I have school, and I am starting a job. Frankly, Wong is one of the worst people I've interacted with, as good a person as he is. This is no disrespect to him, but I have a different take on him than most of you guys do. HDS brought up a very good point: You can't be spending your lives following somebody. He's the admin, yes, and that makes him all-powerful on this board, but you treat him as something infallible far too often.

I mean I must agree with HDS and verilon, we can't have the reputation of the board plus several dozen IQ points knocked off because of one thread now can we?

HDS is right. Enough of the Lord Wong worship it's quite sad. Regarding names, Darth Wong or Lord Wong is good enough- however I don't wanna call our Admin just Wong, it's disrespectful- however when I say Lord Wong I'm not being a geeky worshipping wierdo. I suggest everyone quit it.

On that note, I think th thread had good intentions to begin with, but got out of hand after the second reply...

If you had not said It I would have HDS, you have my agreement on the issue

Heh heh ... while this is all very amusing and embarrassing at the same time, I think people need to relax a bit. The "cult of Wong" thing is
obviously just for fun, and anyone who takes it seriously or uses it as a slam against the board's population is a blithering idiot. So I don't think we should worry about how it will be "perceived" by others.
PS. The "cult of Wong" thing would be quite interesting if I could use it to get tax-exempt status

Hmm let’s make a deal
I’ll worship you as my lord.
You get a tax-exempt status, and as a good and grateful lord you give me 10% of the cash saved!
Deal?

Heh heh...........I wouldn't mind having a gaggle of unknowing people in that case, either..../jk I don't like to be the one followed for stupid reasons.

You get a tax exemption for being a religous icon?
Lord Poe~ Not only do you state the obvious, but you are about 5 months to late with your announcement. You really might want to visit more often.

Couldn't Mike use his idol status to get money in some way? I wonder what would happen if you put "Cult of Wong" as your religion on the census form...

I think its all in fun and should not be taken seriously. I posted, but I spend almost all of my time in OT. We are just being silly.
You have to give Wong some credit for provinding a place for us to go.

Everytime I see a "ALL HAIL LORD WONG!" post, I can't help but be reminded of a certain locker scene in Men In Black 2.

Especially the transfer of loyalty from K to J...

Nah, they changed loyalties when J put his watch in the locker. He became the "lightgiver".
btw, watch the alternate ending. Its downright hilarious!

HDS and verilon said it perfectly. This Wong worship is getting annoying.
And then you have the likes of Poe using this as a pathetic excuse to go about SB bashing. Piss off.

These things have a way of taking on a life of their own. Someone earlier said this reminds them of the DoW and that was something that I simply made up.
And Aleyska, we need a real reason now to make fun of SB.com? Sheesh what's the world coming to?
